About The Book
In this timely and thought-provoking work, Michael Boyle explores the rapidly evolving role of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)—commonly known as drones—in modern warfare and international security. With over 80 countries developing drone programs and non-state actors like the Islamic State entering the field, the global landscape of armed conflict is being reshaped at an unprecedented pace.
This volume brings together perspectives from law, ethics, and political science to critically examine how drones are challenging established norms on the use of force, targeted killings, and international law. Key issues discussed include whether drones represent a revolutionary transformation in warfare, their consistency with humanitarian and legal principles, and their potential utility in peacekeeping or humanitarian missions.
Originally published as a special issue of The International Journal of Human Rights, this book is essential reading for scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in the intersection of technology, warfare, and ethics in the 21st century.
